Great location, at the center of El Nido proper. Staff is outstanding, very hospitable and helpful. The hotel is also very clean. Had fun staying at this hotel. The owner is also very kind and accommodating. The dogs are a big plus, so cute! Will definitely go back. :)

Perfectly reasonable hotel in a great location - very walkable to everywhere you want to go in El Nido.
Our room was clean and comfortable, though the bathroom sink didn’t drain quickly enough and water would pool in the sink momentarily before draining - it also had a slight odour. The beds and pillows were comfy, and the A/C unit was effective and quiet.
The buffet breakfast was good but not great, we ate breakfast there out of convenience. The buffet staff were very friendly and pleasant to deal with, though I prefer being able to serve myself at buffets since I can make the toast how I like it and choose the pieces of bacon that are cooked how I like or the piece of fruit that looks the best, rather than having to communicate all of this to the person adding the food to my plate.
All in all, I good stay. The staff there met us with cold bottled water upon our arrival and helped us with our luggage.

This was the best hotel for me! It is near to the beach also to the bars and restaurants but you don’t hear the noise.
The staff was amazing! Super kindly and helpful. They helped us in our tours and also to schedule a shuttle bus.
The pool was clean, and the room too.
They are very honest!
If I come back to el Nido, I will definitely book this hotel

Pros:
-It has water stations each floor which is convenient so you don’t have to keep buying bottles of water.
-Room was clean and spacious.
-Staff was friendly and helped me with my luggage.
Cons:
-Be aware that not all the rooms come with mini fridge, I thought this was by default to all rooms.
-Breakfast was simple. Seems that same food options each day.
-Price was high for Philippines and in general but seems it is more the “foreign tax” for all hotels. They provide a service is not represented with the price. For that price you can get better in a western country.
-The sink in the bathroom sometimes had a weird smell.

Great location and staff!
It is located in the center of the town close to everything. Literally next to a small grocery store which is very convenient for necessities and snacks. The elevator was on repair when we stayed. Our room is at the 4th floor but after a few back and forth on the stairs I could not take it anymore because of lung issues the staff quickly accommodated my needs and moved us to second floor. That was really nice and appreciated. They are also partners with UMI Tours we booked 2 private tours and they were amazing and reasonable priced tours. They are also steps away from laundry service which is a plus. Breakfast has lots of choices. Overall the staff and reception really went above and beyond to answer our questions and assist us. The service is superb. Rooms are clean and has everything we need. Never experienced lost of power because they have generators and water is filtered we felt safe using tap water for brushing our teeth. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will soon go back.
